About this property

Cabin Home in the City!

Enjoy this cabin-like A-Frame in the city! Although located near many businesses and conveniences, this property sits on 1.5 wooded acres in a private setting, you won't feel like you're in town! (Before we go on, you are strongly encouraged to buy Travel Insurance, as you never know what can come up. This is direct from the VRBO website: Visit www.vacationprotection.com to buy a travel insurance plan. All of our plans include 24/7 Travel Support while traveling.)

Amenities for guests include a hot tub (for an extra fee), fire pit with an abundance of wood for burning, Keurig with K cups, 5 TVs most with DVD and Blu Ray players (with Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc)and tons of DVD movies to choose from, as well as a digital antenna (on 3 TVs) that gets many channels including all the major networks, dishes, towels, bedding and much more. Upper level offers 2 sleeping areas, one queen sized bed and one king size bed (this room is an open "loft" style room), flat screen TVs with Blu Ray and small decks/balconies.

Just off the living room is a sun room with hot tub (If you don't intend to use the hot tub let me know and I'll refund the $100 fee for it) with lots of towels, pub table for four, and a side deck for relaxing. The kitchen has oven, range, microwave, Keurig with a sampler of coffees, pots, pans, dishes, glasses, silverware, coffee pot, full size refrigerator and table that seats six.

Property is located 10 minutes from downtown and across the street from Mayo Dialysis Center and Concordia Lutheran Church (plus there are many other churches in town).

Also, Eau Claire is know for it's extensive bike trail system.

At Short Street, the Eau Claire City Trail connects with the Chippewa River State Trail. Passes are required after this point. https://www.eauclairewi.gov/recreation/trails.

Note: the stairs to the upper level bedrooms are steep! Also, for everyone's protection, exterior-only video monitoring is in place (camera by the entry door, back deck, and woods south of the sunroom). Included in the base price are 4 people, then there's a $50 for per guest/per trip after that.

4th sleeping option is the futon in the lower level, plus an air mattress.

Family getaway.
A great location and unique house made for a memorable weekend. We used this as a family get together and besides the much warned steep stairs it checked all the boxes we were looking for. The stairs are no joke steep - go slow and be careful and you’ll be fine. I’d recommend Paul’s place.

Perfect getaway
The house was perfect for our stay. We had room to spread out & the hottub was a nice treat. The location is convenient to the city but has a rural/private feel.

Wonderful stay
My husband and I were in Wisconsin with 4 of our adult children for a family funeral, and Paul's cabin was a cozy and comfortable place to gather our family. It's clean, conveniently situated, stocked with everything and full of books! Communication with Paul was fast and easy, and he could not have been more accommodating. Thanks for a great stay.

Great cabin feel in a city
Paul is a great and responsive host. The location feels quiet like a cabin but is very walkable to multiple restaurants, bars, and other places. It's perfect for a weekend getaway without the hassle of having to pack tons of food and stuff up front.

About the host

Hosted by Paul Canfield

Host profile image
This property has been my home since 2007. It gives the feel of an "up-north" cabin. Eau Claire has been my home since elementary school and I know and love the area. Since 1997 I have enjoyed my career in real estate as a Realtor. My hobbies include hunting, fishing, golfing and and gardening. I am an avid reader, as you will see with the amount of books I have! hope you enjoy your stay.

What makes this property unique

The lot is big and mostly wooded & private, so you almost feel like you are at a cabin in the woods, yet you are right in town!
